I'm glad to see you all had a great time and no one was killed or damaged ...lol

I would have liked to have taken more pictures, but the weather wasn't really cooperating-- we were all huddled under Steve's awning...and later on we thought to bring our Gator canopy over. It was great meeting everyone, can't wait till we do it again on July 4th. Loved the 900 loop, it was our first time in it. The kids liked being close to the Meadows Trading Post.

I really, really, look like this.....

The 900 loop is our favorite. Got put in there our 2nd trip to the fort and always prefer it. Anything in the 911 area is fine with me.

The MDGG looked like great fun. Imagine if BigDisneyDaddy and I would have been able to come how it would have shaped things. Our trip to Spirit of the Suwannee in Live Oak, FL was a blast. We had 37 people in our group. We all took turns cooking each meal. My dinner was Sunday night and I made hard and soft tacos which turned out pretty good if I say so myself.

It wasn't cold...just the rain kept coming and going. It was great placing the names with the faces. It was also great meeting Mrs. Gus and her sidekick--didn't start chatting with her till the end of the evening. It was also nice meeting Dean and Monica who were across from us. It was great because a bunch of us --Auburn Jen, Big Kahuna, Dean and Monica, Steve and Lisa were all near each other. I also enjoyed chatting with Terry01 and Debbie too! It is hard remembering everyone's names....should have brought sticky name stickers....next time.

Donnie... you are SOOOOOO right, had you and I been there with our families:

The sun would have shined
The beer would have been colder
The days would have been longer
Gas would have been cheaper
The grass would have been greener
The kids would all listened to their parents
Angie would have said "you guys" instead of Y'all
The carts would have been faster
Ms Sundee would have showed up
We would have raised the collective IQ.

The good news, is that because your photo was laminated by some broad with an umbrella, you'll be going camping quite often!!! You have been permanently placed in our trailer in this area that formerly served no purpose.

Now, when can I start posting pics of my own? I am anxious to get my family pics up on this board. And I know we have a lot in common: love of Fort Wilderness, beer, and looping on the GC.

How did you get him into the holding tank, Pete?? (Black, not grey!):lmao:

Oh.... the holding tank serves a very good purpose.

Um..... you put him in one of the storage bays?? No... that serves a good purpose, too.

I know, I know!!! You wedged him between the fridge and the wall!! Yup! Al loves wedgies!!! :rotfl2:

You've got him now, Pete!! He has been my camping mooch for several years, now.

All I had to say was..."Hey, Al! We're going to The Fort on such n such day." (dead silence on cell phone. A few minutes later cell phone rings) Al: "Okay, my flight come into MCO at 0900 hours. Do you want me to take a shuttle bus or can you come get me?"

At no time did the words...."Hey Al! Ya wanna come & stay with us?" ... come out of my mouth.

He's all yours, my friend!!

Hey, thanks for asking! We are here at FW now... we didn't arrive until Sunday late afternoon...so we missed all of the action at MDGG! :( But we're having a great time now...the weather has been GREAT!! It's warm during the day...but soooo nice in the evenings. Perfect for Kungaloosh and golf cart rides! :thumbsup2 Need to find BDR and show off our shirts. After looking at the pics, I think I waved at Mrs Gatordad on Sunday. I've seen several Gator carts this week, so I didn't realize it was her. LOTS of folks pulled out Sunday (edit, most folks pulled out on Monday) and the campground has been pretty quiet....LOTS of empty sites.

We're in 1623 with our color changing Mickey lamp post if anyone wants to stop by for a beer! We're in the back of the loop and its WAY too quiet back here. I'll think we'll try for 900 next time too.

I *did* spot you and your ds looping in 1600...I think it was on Sunday. :thumbsup2

Sunday evening was a lot of fun and the Fort was FULL of people looping, socializing, kungaloosh, beer...AND I didn't witness anything get out of hand...it was lots of fun. Then came Monday and the Fort is dead! :(

We're enjoying a slower pace at the Fort this week. I'm really surprised at how many open spaces there are. I've never witnessed it this way.

Great pictures.

I am pretty sure our next trip to the fort will be oct 09, I hope I can talk some of ya into meeting up then.When in October, John? We already have reservations for the 17th to the 25th. We are flying down, because it is only a week, and using our DVC points, but we could find our way over to the Fort. ::yes::

G8trmom,

I *did* spot you and your ds looping in 1600...I think it was on Sunday. :thumbsup2

Sunday evening was a lot of fun and the Fort was FULL of people looping, socializing, kungaloosh, beer...AND I didn't witness anything get out of hand...it was lots of fun. Then came Monday and the Fort is dead! :(

We're enjoying a slower pace at the Fort this week. I'm really surprised at how many open spaces there are. I've never witnessed it this way.

Hey Sonya, I bet that this is just the beginning of what will probably turn out to be a huge slowdown at the Fort. Not the best time considering all the money they're pouring into it (which means we'll probably have to wait another 15 years for an update).

I remember how dead it was after 9/11, for probably a good year and a half or so. We went the Thanksgiving right after 9/11, and the place was so empty it was crazy. And this was at Thanksgiving, the majority of the cabins were empty and a lot of the campsites as well. Was kind of spooky to see it that way :/

Ha, you were looping with your ds when i spotted you from our site. I waved...but didn't know for sure if it was you...until I saw the pictures. Too bad you guys pulled out, we're having a great week at the Fort, but there are too many empty sites!

Chris, we're hoping dates open up for us to return at Thanksgiving. We'll be down in October, but we'd love to spend Thanksgiving at FW!

Q Why doesn't your DS have Auburn shirt on, how are we supposed to know he is yours? :lmao:

1- My DS HAD an auburn shirt on and had an accident all over the bottom of it
(you asked for it, you got it TOYOTA~)

2- If they don't know what we are talking about, they can go and read ALL of the MMGG thread and this thread to catch up...fair enough?

If Phyllis sends her pic you can hang us together and we'll both get verklempt and cry over our children growing up, lol. (Phyllis, if you read this, I'll bring the tissues, k?) ;)

I don't want to ruin all of Rog's post when he gets back but I will say that they are having a great time. He was a little suprised at how well Mrs. Rog and the kids did. He said that he put a lot of effort into making them all enjoy the tent camping and it paid off.

And more of pretty much the same....we stayed close to NTSAMMY and PPix for most of the night apparently, and would occassionally spill beer on the photos just to keep them in the loop!!! The rumple was good, beer was better, people were unbelievable!!!!!! This was the most fun I had doing basicly nothing in a very, VERY long time. You guys were great company, and we all come from extremely different backgrounds and walks of life......we all seemed to click pretty nicely.....
